    Hi Lee,

    Below is a message that I tried to send to the MSR Exec list serve.  Apparently, I can still receive all of the messages to the list serve, but I can't post to it.

    I'd appreciate it if you forward the message to the list serve, and point out to them that I tried to respond and I can no longer do so to the list serve.

    Thanks.

    Jerry

    Hi everyone,

    Sorry I haven't taken part in any of the phone conversations this year. I have been reading all of the messages , as I am still on the MSRexec list serve.

    I believe that the meditation session to which Orneita is referring is a proposed PDW meditation session on chanting that I submitted along with Lynne Sedgemore and three other proposers. We were disappointed to learn that the session was not accepted, and I my fellow proposers would be very happy if it were accepted (regardless of whether it was held on or off site).

    The meditation session that Lee and Judi are referring to were a daily meditation session that I led each day of the conference from 7 to 8 am on site. The session was listed as a MSR meditation session in the program each day, and the sessions did not count as part of the rule of three. i am willing to again do the sessions every day of the conference, but would probably begin with Saturday morning (so Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday morning) from 7 to 8 each day. Please let me know if you are interested in my doing so, and if it is possible to schedule the session on the program

    Hi Orneita,

    4- Generally seem good idea.  In my view, though we need to see what Judi thinks as she is coordinating it, holding the DC off-site next door with a more extended time seems to work very well-probably 2-5:30 with the dinner at 6:30.
    5-I have no real opinion about 5.
    6-I think it unfortunate that we will not include the meditation sessions as we have been doing these for some years and they seem quite popular (despite their being too early for me!).  I don't really understand the theme issue re accepting them.  It seems OK to me to hold them off-site but again we need to hear from Jerry.

    Also, the obvious finally occurred to me.  As far as I kow there's no real reason why the dinner needs to be on FRIDAY rather than Saturday; it could be argued either way - less conflicts for attendees perhaps on Sat. but, on the other hand, some might prefer to save on hotels by arriving a day later.  Overall with these changes Fri seems to continue to be better - but just a thought about the options. 

    Please let me know more about "schedule the dinner in the same location, if preferred, " if you want me to check further on prices and scheduling.  Thanks for all your very organized work.
    Lee

    To All,

    Thanks to everyone for your input and patience regarding the PDW program.  As the details settle, this is where we are today:
     
    1) Regarding the Doctoral Consortium, the session time was Saturday afternoon from 2 to 4.  I asked Valerie to move it to Friday afternoon.  However, she only has a 180 seat room available at this time.  That is why she did not schedule it at that time before.
     
    2) Our Research Incubator was scheduled from 10 to 12 am Saturday, which conflicted with the Senge session that Kathryn is coordinating.  I requested that we move the Incubator to the 2 to 4 pm slot- this has been done.
     
    3) Arthur has been looking for an off-site location to host one off-site PDW.  As you saw from his emails, he found a fantastic place that came with the request and opportunity to offer a performance by him and Judi.  To extend the session, he was considering adding some of the PDWs that were rejected because of limited hours.  However, Valerie said that the system cannot add rejected PDWs to the program schedule. 
     
    With this in mind, I propose the following:
     
    4) Hold the Doctoral Consortium off site in the location Arthur has found.  It is a nice, non-traditional location, very close to the Sheraton, provides opportunities to do activities that are not part of either a PDW or a scholarly program, we would not need to limit our DC to 2 hours, and we could plan to schedule the dinner in the same location, if preferred, immediately after the Consortium. 
     
    5) Move the PDW that is now an off-site session to on-site in the Saturday morning time slot. Because it is a submitted workshop, it does not matter that it would be in the same time slot as the Senge event. 
     
    6) Biberman submitted 3 PDWs, two of which were meditation sessions.  I accepted the one that was not, but had to reject the other two because the PDWs as a group followed a different theme relative to the Academy theme around an Informal Economy.   One session was very interesting and would fit well into an informal session.  It involved a group of individuals well trained in the art of meditation.  If we could somehow include this in our "informal" off-site session, it could make an interesting program along with artistic expressions.  
     
    Just my thoughts after going through the details of the program and our options.  I value your input and recommendations.

    Hello folks,
     
    The morning meditations are a homegrown MSR tradition; I can't think of anything else that has had a longer-standing presence within our community.
     
    After the first year or two, I was absent from attending any morning meditations for about 4 - 5 years and then returned last year in San Antonio.  It was a beautiful reconnecting experience; it is uniquely "MSR en-vivo".

    Posted 02-27-2012 04:46

    Hello all,

    I think this deserves to be talked about by as many list members as possible, perhaps at the MSR business meeting at the Academy meeting in August; perhaps also on the list here; perhaps in other fora as well.

    I attended a management/spirituality/religion conference recently where there was some discussion as to where the field is going, mostly centring on the question of whether we want to conduct research on the effects/implications of how faith and business interact, or whether we want to write about the managerial/organizational lessons we think can be taken from faith traditions. For me, that distinction frames the discussion about the meditation sessions, and what I understand to be challenging in maintaining MSR as a scholarly community.

    All good wishes, scott

    Hello everyone,

     

    Thanks Scott.

     

    In MSR, I seek to liaise and work with researchers interested in the emergence of workplace/leadership/spirituality and its potential for individuals and for society.

    Coming from a managerial background and its related belief that hands-on experience enhances research, my desire is to find people in MSR who not only

    study and write about spirituality, but also have interest in practice. I am grateful to meet such people among others in the morning meditation sessions.

     

    In San Antonio the attendance grew close to 50, increasing every day and attracting a number of non-MSR members.
    This would suggest that we actually may need a bigger room in Boston...

     

    Is maintaining these sessions actually being questioned ?

    Or was there just some initial confusion between these sessions and PDWs that needed to be aligned with this year's theme?

     

    Warm regards to all,

    Hello all,
     
    I definitely agree with Scott that we need to talk about this.  My dissertation centered on how faith impacts society, and it was a little disheartening to learn that in most cases it does only to a certain extent.  I am most certainly open to more research on the subject.  Please keep me in the loop.

    The morning meditations are a homegrown MSR tradition; I can't think of anything else that has had a longer-standing presence within our community.
     
    After the first year or two, I was absent from attending any morning meditations for about 4 - 5 years and then returned last year in San Antonio.  It was a beautiful reconnecting experience; it is uniquely "MSR en-vivo".

    Hello all
    I am new the group and the discussion. 
    My name is Kim Nolan and I am currently focusing my doctorate studies on themes of spirituality and leadership, regarding organizational culture and self care. My scholarship is influenced by being an ordained Buddhist chaplain. As you can imagine, I am deeply interested in all conversations that discuss meditation; both the usefulness and challenges of practice.
    I am happy to share research I have been a part of and plan to bring into dissertation efforts.
    Thanks, Kim

    Hello all,

    I think this deserves to be talked about by as many list members as possible, perhaps at the MSR business meeting at the Academy meeting in August; perhaps also on the list here; perhaps in other fora as well.

    I attended a management/spirituality/religion conference recently where there was some discussion as to where the field is going, mostly centring on the question of whether we want to conduct research on the effects/implications of how faith and business interact, or whether we want to write about the managerial/organizational lessons we think can be taken from faith traditions. For me, that distinction frames the discussion about the meditation sessions, and what I understand to be challenging in maintaining MSR as a scholarly community.

    All good wishes, scott

    Dear All

    Namaste to the Divinity in you!

    I have joined the MSR last year. I am active in two fields Entrepreneurship and MSR but I felt being part of the MSR family immediately after the first session which was a guided meditation in the morning by Jerry Biberman.
    The MSR gives a warm family feeling while the ENT tend towards maximizing our EGO potential and competitiveness. And to my believe we as MSR are addressing the forgotten piece in Management which is about the relevance of our Souk based consciousness to improve attitudes, behaviors and decisions in the management and entrepreneurship domain.

    I only regret that our PDW has not been approved because I think it is worth it to experience a variety of techniques, both hailing from the East and the West.
    In the proposed PDW we tried to address part of this variety.
    We need to actively include Indian approaches to spirituality in the MSR including research otherwise it will only represent a part of the world community while the MSR should try to be the community for Spirituality worldwide.

    In Boston I will happily join the morning sessions of Jerry.

    Hello all,

    I definitely agree with Scott that we need to talk about this. My dissertation centered on how faith impacts society, and it was a little disheartening to learn that in most cases it does only to a certain extent. I am most certainly open to more research on the subject. Please keep me in the loop.
